Extrapolation means
A
To use the measured data to predict something outside of what was measured.
B
To use the measured data to predict something between two data points.
C
A term used when you have an extra pole
D
A random guess
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Extrapolation is about predicting hypothetical values that fall outside a particular data set. The predictive quality of extrapolation means the method is usually used to predict unknown future values, unlike interpolation, which is usually about estimating past values.

Detailed explanation-2: -Extrapolation is a statistical technique aimed at inferring the unknown from the known. It attempts to predict future data by relying on historical data, such as estimating the size of a population a few years in the future on the basis of the current population size and its rate of growth.

Detailed explanation-3: -Extrapolation is the process of inferring values outside the range of the existing data to make predictions. Extrapolation is one of the essential methods that data scientists use to predict future trends and outcomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Extrapolation involves making statistical forecasts by using historical trends that are projected for a specified period of time into the future. It is only used for time-series forecasts. For cross-sectional or mixed panel data (time-series with cross-sectional data), multivariate regression is more appropriate.

Detailed explanation-5: -Calculate the slope m of the line, with the equation: m = (y2 โ€“ y1) / (x2 โ€“ x1) Calculate the value of y using the line equation: y = y1 + m ยท (x โ€“ x1) Extract the coordinates of the given data points. x1 = 1. Calculate the slope of the line using equation (1): Calculate the value of y using equation (2):
